Bumba is a feminine perfume by YZY Perfume, a Miami house that sells its creations at accessible prices, offered in a 100 ml Eau de Parfum and classified in the chypre family. Fruits and bergamot open the accord, floral notes and honey occupy the heart, leather, oakmoss, patchouli and vanilla the base. The perfumer and the launch year are not known.
Top notes
Plum, peach, raspberry and bergamot make up the opening of Bumba. This fruity opening departs from classic chypre usage, where bergamot generally opens the composition without such pronounced fruity accompaniment.
Heart notes
The heart brings together floral notes and honey; the house does not specify which flowers were chosen. Honey lends a soft, amber inflection at the junction between the fruits of the opening and the materials of the base.
Base notes
The base is the most substantial part: leather, oakmoss, ambergris, sandalwood, patchouli, musk and vanilla. Oakmoss and patchouli anchor the chypre classification, while leather, ambergris and vanilla steer the accord toward a warmer base.
